You Practice Immortality, I Farm

Chapter 898 The necessary steps for fishing

Lu Xuan followed the guidance of the middle-aged monk and controlled the sword light all the way down the Qianbaozhen River.

On the way, as Shi Zichen said, not every river bank can be fished for treasures. Only in certain special locations can monks fish quietly.

During this period, he met more than a dozen monks who were cultivators of alchemy. There was also a place where several monks wearing standard robes gathered together. At first glance, they were from well-known families.

When everyone saw Lu Xuan, they either glanced at him curiously or watched him warily. Of course, most of their attention was still on the fishing rod in their hands.

Lu Xuan arrived near his destination and his eyes were attracted by a simple wooden house.

There is a wooden door on the side of the wooden house facing the real river. There is a dim spiritual light at the door, and there seems to be a cave inside.

"It should be right here."

Lu Xuan secretly guessed based on the distance. He came to the wooden house gently, scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he spoke out.

"Fish shop owner, junior Lu Xuan, come over to senior to buy a set of fishing tools. If I am inconvenient, please forgive me."

"Come in." A short and hoarse voice sounded in Lu Xuan's ears.

He passed through the dim aura and saw a spacious house, much larger than what he saw from the outside.

The house is very simply decorated, with more than a dozen wooden shelves placed randomly, and there are various fishing-related treasures on the shelves.

"It seems that this wooden house is a space treasure, somewhat similar to the Thousand Machine House."

Lu Xuan secretly looked at everything in the wooden house.

Nearby, he spotted the figure of a thin old man.

The old man's cheeks were sunken and full of wrinkles. He looked extremely ordinary. His gnarled fingers were wiping a bone fishhook.

But appearing near such a magical place as the Void Thousand Treasures True River is not an ordinary thing.

Lu Xuan immediately knew the identity of the other party.

"Junior has met the fish shop owner."

He saluted respectfully.

The thin old man didn't seem to hear his words, and continued to wipe the fishhook as if no one else was watching, looking at it carefully, as if the fishhook was a rare treasure in his eyes.

Long before he came here, Lu Xuan learned about the shopkeeper's temperament from Shi Zichen, so he didn't care and just looked around.

"Pick it up yourself."

"No counteroffer."

He noticed a wooden sign on the side of the wooden frame with several large scrawled characters written on it.

"Wuyao Spiritual Rod...18,000 low-grade spiritual stones? Why don't you go and grab them?"

Lu Xuan immediately found a black obsidian spiritual pole, which was similar to the one in Shi Zichen's hand. There were some slight differences in the details. They were both made of obsidian spiritual minerals.

"A fishing rod that is mainly used to catch treasures is actually offered at such a high price!"

"One hundred and eighty thousand low-grade spiritual stones, this level has surpassed many magical weapons of the same level."

Lu Xuan was secretly stunned, once again realizing how wealthy and generous the fishing guy was.

This fifth-grade Wu Yao spiritual rod was barely at the forefront of all fishing rods. Lu Xuan also noticed that there were several sixth-grade fishing rods, and the price was no less than 300,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

This made him lament the huge profits of this store.

He just planned to give it a try, so he set his sights on those third- and fourth-grade fishing rods.

"The black jade spiritual pole, fourth grade, is forged from black jade bamboo. It has a hard texture and good toughness. It can catch fifth-grade spiritual fish and monsters. It sells for 20,000 low-grade spiritual stones."

"Qing Ling Stone Pole, fourth grade, forged from a large amount of Qing Ling Stone ore. When paired with the Qing Ling Hook, it can emit a light Qing Ling breath, which can effectively drive away some evil spirits and demons in areas near the water. There is a certain probability of attracting a treasure of the same genus, priced at 26,000 low-grade spiritual stones.”

"Thunder Light Spirit Rod, third grade, can emit a special vibrating thunder sound, which can increase the possibility of catching lightning spiritual fish and monsters. It sells for 15,000 low-grade spiritual stones." "..."

Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment, and finally set his eyes on the black jade spiritual pole.

The price of this fourth-grade fishing rod is more acceptable to him among all the spiritual rods, so it is more suitable for experimentation.

More importantly, the fishing rod is forged from the fourth-grade black jade bamboo. If he intends to cultivate something similar to the spiritual bamboo in the future, he can consider including it in the planting range.

"Ice silk is made from a large amount of spiritual silk spun by third-grade ice silkworms. It can withstand the impact of fifth-grade monsters in a short period of time. The longer it takes, the greater the possibility of breakage."

"Agarwood hook, a fourth-grade fishhook, is made from agarwood that has been ground for a long time. It has great temptations for many kinds of spiritual fish and water animals, and can make them lose their minds in an instant."

Lu Xuan observed for a while, and after a while, he selected the fishing line and hook.

The fishing line is a large ball of third-grade ice silk, priced at 8,000 lower-grade spiritual stones.

The fishhook is made of ground agarwood, which is not sharp enough, but it has its own uniqueness. It sells for 15,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

In the end, he spent another 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones to buy a box of the most common fishing bait and came to the skinny old man.

"Senior Yu, I have selected four treasures, namely a black jade spiritual rod, ice silk, an agarwood hook and a box of ordinary fishing bait."

Lu Xuan did not dare to hide anything in front of True Lord Yuanying and spoke truthfully.

"Here are five hundred and thirty middle-grade spiritual stones. Please take a look at them, senior."

He took out a pile of middle-grade spiritual stones that were full of aura and sent them to the skinny old man.

"That's right."

The fish shop owner didn't look back and continued to wipe the bone fishhook in his hand.

The pile of middle-grade spiritual stones in front of him quietly disappeared, entering into some space treasure.

"Junior, take your leave."

Seeing this, Lu Xuan cupped his hands and left with a few fishing tools.

"He's quite a good fishing prospect."

After his figure disappeared, the thin old man raised his head, looked at the direction where Lu Xuan left with cloudy eyes, and sighed softly.

Lu Xuan was completely unaware of this and rushed to Shi Zichen's location with four treasures.

"Just the basic tools cost more than 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones. Fishing in the Qianbaozhen River is a bottomless pit."

He sighed secretly.

Since they were only experimental in nature, the few tools he chose were all in the middle and lower categories, but even so, they cost a lot of spiritual stones. The expenses of those senior monks who stayed on the river bank for a long time would be astonishing.

"Fishing for treasures can make the farming life here in Quanquan Dongtian a little more interesting."

"Of course, it's also to verify a conjecture in my mind."

"The first step in fishing is to attract strange beings such as spiritual fish and water animals and let them swallow the bait."

"This is a necessary step, and at the same time, it also completes the breeding process."

"Perhaps, I can understand through the fishing rod and line, as well as the terrifying Qianbaozhen River water, what exactly is the being that bit the fishhook?"

"If it's feasible, that's a big advantage for me."

Lu Xuan secretly thought in his heart that he could know exactly what he had caught without spiritual knowledge, just by mental exploration.

Then, you can avoid some risks caused by evil spirits. At the same time, you can also provide targeted bait according to the preferences of spiritual fish, aquatic animals, and strange species to easily catch them.
